Israeli airstrikes continued to pound every district and neighborhood across the Gaza Strip, leaving no area untouched amid ongoing bombardments targeting residential areas and agricultural lands.

Despite Israeli claims that certain areas are designated "safe zones," heavy shelling struck Al-Mawasi—an area previously promoted as a humanitarian safe zone—resulting in the death of one Palestinian and injuries to several others since early morning.

In eastern Khan Younis, intense artillery shelling targeted farmland, leading to the deaths of two farmers in the Abasan area and causing additional injuries among agricultural workers.

In the southern city of Rafah, Israeli warplanes launched a series of airstrikes on the city's northern outskirts, destroying homes and densely populated residential blocks. Explosions and building demolitions also continued in western Rafah, escalating the humanitarian crisis in the region.

Meanwhile, in the central Gaza Strip, a residential house belonging to the Darwish family in Al-Nuseirat refugee camp was targeted, killing four Palestinians. Artillery fire also struck other areas, including Al-Bureij camp and Deir al-Balah, with repeated shelling reported.

According to UN workers, the situation on the ground has been described as catastrophic. With no genuinely safe zones, Palestinians are facing severe food insecurity and critical water shortages due to the ongoing blockade and the complete closure of border crossings. Under these dire circumstances, meeting even basic daily needs has become nearly impossible.
